Day to day activities and roles vary due to postings, however as a CMT you'll be expected to keep on top of clinical training, military skills and complete a portfolio especially if you want to work towards a EMT or paramedic qualification. You'll also need to keep on top of your military training to especially if you get attached to the infantry. Deployments work differently as you could be the medic on duty or be expected to train others including commonwealth soldiers on how do do battlefield first aid.

On average depending on training on whether your on a operational year you could be deployed at anytime ranging from weeks to months during COVID at the moment most medics are on call to help the civil authority unless on operational duties.
